Information

Sites are in disrepair. Booking system abandoned and most areas quite overgrown and most seem long unused. Suitable for serious fishermen but not recommended to general travellers. Most unpleasant.***As of 2026 the online permit and booking system is no longer operational due to temporary long-term closure of the Visitors Centre due to no staff. Camp at own risk, free*** —————— The "Meatworks" is one of 5 camping zones on Gangalidda and Garawa Native Title lands where a permit is required. A permit can be applied for online (immediate application) or in person at the Burketown Visitor Centre.At the "Meatworks" there are many designated sites spread along the sand banks of the Arthur River, located just a few kilometres northeast of town. All sites are easily accessible by all vehicles, but still secluded.
